Fox Chairman of Entertainment Kevin Reilly Stepping Down

Fox boss Kevin Reilly announced Thursday that he will step down by the end of June.

“[Fox Networks Group CEO] Peter [Rice] and I have been discussing this transition for a while, and now with a robust new slate of programming for next season and strength in the FBC ranks, it felt like the timing was as right as it could be,” Reilly said in a statement. “I couldn’t be more thankful to my team — a group of creative, tireless and fun people whose fellowship I will miss.”
